Creative mode looks a lot like the free web-based version that I played and thought "What's all the fuss about?". I think that removes most of the fun of building stuff, it's pretty much one step away from a level editor.
The terrain looks really good though, rivers and ravines and stuff. I hope there's a way of making new areas on current servers generate like that. I quite like the idea of NPC villages and strongholds in solo/group survival but wouldn't really want them on a creative server like Teh.
I think creative mode will spoil it for the people using it (although I can see it being useful for admins).
My tower wouldn't have been nearly as satisfying if I hadn't mined and smelted the cobblestone.
Admittedly I nickel some from Jon, but over 90% was self- obtained.

I can toggle it on and off for any player right now.
Obviously it's not as easy as a full creative mode because you would still need to to do
/give [name] [item-id] [amount]
But still possible.
So, does it grant you access to any and every resource without having to mine/craft, with unlimited numbers or does it only give certain resources to build with like the web based game?
(can't watch the video 'til I get home :( )
Blimey.
I want to build a castle out of TNT now! (bounce)
